Greetings everyone,
This is my first post, however I will be cutting right to the chase. My apologies if by doing so I somehow manage to offend someone.
My friend and I are planning to lead a life of looking for both historical as well as scientific treasures. Our scope is going to be the whole world, with our main form of transportation being a boat. A catamaran to be precise, which I’m designing myself. Even though our objectives are finding treasure, the main goal is the adventure this will bring. This in itself being a vault of treasure filled with personal development and experiences. I have to stress that we won’t be doing this for the gain of personal financial wealth, but for the personal wealth of experience and development this brings and the incidental wealth of knowledge this will bring the whole world.
We are well aware that this will not come without risk, but we’ll try to manage that to the best of our abilities. In my opinion, if you’re not willing to risk something in order to get what you want from life at one point, you will most likely regret not having taken a shot for the rest of it. Key is the way you manage the risk. Having only this life here cuts both ways; Don’t rashly throw it away, but don’t waste it either. As a nearly graduated mechanical engineer I’ve noticed that I don’t want to work a 40 hour per week job in office, but I’d much rather use my knowledge and apply it to a more adventurous cause which might be able to benefit the whole world, instead of just one company and a consumerist culture. I’m however not hiding the fact that this is in the first place inspired by a personal desire to live life out this way.
Both of us are already planning and we already have a few potential endeavors lined up, with our first one already decided. We are also continuously looking into the many facets this prolonged expedition will encompass, out of which survival techniques are the most important. The idea is to make this a full-time endeavor, so there will be a constant “on” time. This translates into this becoming our life and not into moving back and forth between the expeditions and temporary retirement in society.
I also have to add that we’re only looking for a maximum of 8 with a preference for a tenacious group of 6 with which we’ll have the possibility to pick up people in the areas we’ll be going for more insight and to improve communication with the people we might encounter there, as not everyone speaks fluent english. This means we’ll be looking for 6 more persons tops.
Of course I haven’t been able to shed light on all the parts of this expedition, but if anyone is interested please P.M me. I would be more than happy to clear up anything and provide you with more information pertaining to the whole endeavor as well as the people involved.
I look forward to hearing from anyone that might share this vision and to the rest I wish Happy hunting.
Kind regards,
